About Gary
Biography
I was born and raised in Southern Nevada and I am a third generation Nevadan. I graduated from University of Las Vegas with a business degree and earned a juris doctorate from University of San Diego.
I am well regarded by my clients, peers and judges. I attest this to my two decades of experience combined with my willingness to deal fairly everyone.
I have been involved with and handled all types of divorce matters, car accident cases, pedestrian accidents, and traffic tickets.
Gary Thompson has over 24 years of experience handling Las Vegas Traffic Tickets.
